Eternal Source of every joy!
Author: Doddridge Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 376 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation Thanksgiving Lyrics: 1 Eternal Source of every joy!
Well may thy praise our lips employ,
While in thy temple we appear,
Whose goodness crowns the circling year.
2 The flowery spring, at thy command,
Embalms the air, and paints the land;
The summer rays with vigor shine,
To raise the corn and cheer the vine.
3 Thy hand, in autumn, richly pours
Through all our coasts redundant stores;
And winters, softened by thy care,
No more a face of horror wear.
4 Seasons and months, and weeks and days,
Demand successive songs of praise;
Still be the cheerful homage paid,
With opening light and evening shade. Scripture: Psalm 33:12

God of the year! with songs of praise
Author: L. H. Sigourney Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 18 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation Thanksgiving Lyrics: 1 God of the year! with songs of praise
And hearts of love, we come to bless
Thy bounteous hand, for thou hast shed
Thy manna o'er our wilderness.
2 In early spring-time thou didst fling
O'er earth its robe of blossoming;
And its sweet treasures, day by day,
Rose quickening in thy blessed ray.
3 God of the seasons! thou hast blest
The land with sunlight and with showers,
And plenty o'er its bosom smiles
To crown the sweet autumnal hours.
4 Praise, praise to thee! our hearts expand
To view these blessings of thy hand,
And on the incense-breath of love
Ascend to their bright home above.
God of the year! with songs of praise
God made all his creatures free
Author: Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 25 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation Freedom Lyrics: 1 God made all his creatures free;
Life itself is liberty;
God ordained no other bands
Than united hearts and hands.
2 Sin the primal charter broke:--
Sin, itself earth's heaviest yoke;
Tyranny with sin began,
Man o'er brute, and man o'er man.
3 But a better day shall be;
Life again be liberty;
And the wide world's only bands
Love-knit hearts and love-linked hands.
4 So shall every slavery cease,
All God's children dwell in peace,
And the new-born earth record
Love, and Love alone, is Lord.
God made all his creatures free
God of our fathers! whose right hand
Author: W. H. Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation Patriotism Lyrics: 1 God of our fathers! whose right hand
Their galling fetters broke,
And set our now delightsome land
Free from a foreign yoke.
2 We thank thee for the blessings given,
Prosperity and peace;
And raise our prayerful hearts to heaven,
That these may still increase.
3 Our warrior sires, who stood in arms,
In death's long slumber rest,
While we, secure from war's alarms,
By their hard toils are blest.
4 We, in our own thrice blissful bowers,
In safety now recline;
These blessings, gracious Lord, are ours:
The praise be ever thine.
God of our fathers! whose right hand

To all the pure of heart,

Till in Thy house of prayer
All was made plain.

All shall be well with me,
Held by Thy hand;
And Thou wilt guide my feet
By Thy own counsel sweet,
Till I, for glory meet,
In glory stand.
3 In earth or heav'n above
Who is there that I love
Compared with Thee?
My heart may faint with fears,
But God my strength appears,
And will to endless years
My portion be.
4 O it is good that I
May still to God draw nigh,
As oft before;
The Lord Jehovah blest,
My refuge and my rest,
Shall be in praise confessed
For evermore. Scripture: Psalm 73 Used With Tune: OLIVET

For the wonders He hath wrought;
His right hand and arm most holy
Triumph in His cause have brought.
In His love and tender mercy
he hath made salvation known,
In the sight of ev'ry nation
He His righteousness hath shown.
2 Truth and mercy tow'rd His people
He hath ever kept in mind,
And His full and free salvation
He hath shown to all mankind.
Sing, O earth, sing to Jehovah,
Praises to Jehovah sing;
With the swelling notes of music
Shout before the Lord, the King.
3 Seas with all your fullness thunder,
All earth's peoples now rejoice;
Floods and hills in praise uniting
To the Lord lift up your voice.
For, behold, Jehovah cometh,
Robed in justice and in might;
He alone will judge the nations,
And His judgment shall be right.

The Victories of Jesus Christ
I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
Author: Henry W. Longfellowm 1807-1882 Appears in 124 hymnals Topics: Christ Birth of; Citizenship, Christian; Memorial Day; National Righteousness; Righteousness; Social Betterment; Jesus Christ the Savior Christmas Lyrics: 1 I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace of earth, goodwill to men.
2 I thought how, as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along th'unbroken song
Of peace on earth, goodwill to men.
3 And in despair I bowed my head:
"There is no peace on earth," I said,
"For hate is strong, and mocks the song
Of peace on earth, goodwill to men."
4 Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
"God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
With peace on earth, goodwill to men."
5 Till, ringing, singing on its way,
The world revolved from night to day
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime,
Of peace on earth, goodwill to men!
Amen. Used With Tune: WALTHAM (Doane)
